Depends on the rules being used.
Speaking ASA, NFHS, and AFA, the batter is out and all runners return.
Don't know about LL.
The rule in NFHS is 7-3-5. In ASA it is 7-6-P. In AFA (2004) it is 10.20-q.
The OP quoted a rule numbered 8-10. I don't know whose rules this is, but it reads like an OBR-based rule set. Possibly LL? In any event, since the runner was not advancing home, the OP appears to be correct. The batter should have been declared out and the runners returned. But, I'm basing that entirely on the stated situation and the quoted rule (wherever it came from).
